Bottom Shelf

A shameless destination
"All caught up in the breeze"
Although I'm walking swiftly, I can't seem to find my feet
So let the music decree, I still haven't lost control
But it seems this life is taking its toll

I think I'll take it slowly, although it might be lonely
You might say a "continental" hell
So please just tell me simply, why is life moving quickly?
I guess you could say I'm doing well
The bottle's on the bottom shelf

Late night hollow-body
Oh, how sweet the sound
It seems the water is rising, but don't let me drown
"Where's the alimony?"
"This man's guilty I swear"
It seems the world wants to breathe in despair

I think I'll take it slowly, although it might be lonely
You might say a "continental" hell
So please just tell me simply, why is life moving quickly?
I guess you could say I'm doing well
The bottle's on the bottom shelf
